tick
lq.tick(value, label=none, sub=false, kind="x", stroke=auto, shorten-sub=50%, align=right, pad=0.5em, inset=4pt, outset=0pt)(source)A tick or subtick on a diagram axis. A tick consists of a tick mark on the axis and a tick label, usually a number denoting the coordinate value.
value : float
Position of the tick in data coordinates.
label : content | lq.tick-label default: none
The label for the tick.
sub : bool default: false
Whether this is a subtick.
kind : "x" | "y" default: "x"
The kind of axis that the tick is attached to.
stroke : auto | stroke default: auto
How to stroke the tick mark. If set to auto, the stroke is inherited
the axis spine.
shorten-sub : ratio default: 50%
How much to shorten sub ticks compared to regular ticks.
align : left | top | right | bottom default: right
Where to align the tick. For example, if set to right, the tick label is
shown to the left of the tick, aligning at its right side. For example,
ticks on a -axis on the left side of the diagram will typically be
aligned on the right.
pad : length default: 0.5em
The padding to add between the tick and the tick label.
inset : length default: 4pt
The length of the tick on the inside of the axis. Here, the tick label
is considered to be on the outside. For example, if tick.align is set
to right, the inset determines the tick length to the right of the
axis spine.
outset : length default: 0pt
Length of the tick on the outside of the axis, see tick.inset. For
example, if tick.align is set to right, the inset determines the tick
length to the left of the axis spine.
